Thanks to Anne Lehto who I met when I gave a talk on Information Literacy Assessment at the TICER course in Tilburg, Netherlands about 10 days ago (more about that anon!) She has sent me information about the Finnish national project on information literacy. The link to the national project is:
http://www.helsinki.fi/infolukutaito/index.htm

This has limited information in English. There are presentations from the 2005 Summer School, mostly in Swedish, but including an English contribution from Sirje Virkus (click on Sommarskolans presentationer to see the list of presentations)

There are links to the international information literacy organisations etc. on the Finnish page:
